IN SEARCH OF THE DRAGON
One of the world's largest circus arenas, the Chimelong Theater, located in Zhuhai, China, is currently under construction. 'The Dragon Show' is undergoing intensive rehearsals for the theater's opening. The three-month deadline for tasks such as selecting performers, conducting rehearsals and designing the stage seems unimaginably short.
This unthinkable mission is entrusted to Madame Li, the director. Here conflict and compromise often intermingle, as do hope and despair. Behind the spectacular show is a dose of cold, cruel reality.
